The 2014 Sochi Olympics A Patchwork of Challenges


Free Download Sergey Markedonov, Andrew C. Kuchins, "The 2014 Sochi Olympics: A Patchwork of Challenges"
English | 2014 | ISBN: 1442228210 | EPUB | pages: 30 | 0.6 mb
The 22nd Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia, possess a singular symbolic character for Russia and its leadership. President Vladimir Putin considers the Games a demonstration of Russia’s growing international role and the success of his administration’s policies. Many view a successful Olympics as integral to his presidency. But also Sochi presents a number of challenges as an Olympic host city. It stands at the center of a number of thorny issues with geopolitical and security implications, including the turbulent insurgencies in the North Caucasus, ethno-political issues such as the "Circassian question," and the Russia-Georgia-Abkhazia security triangle. It is also a focal point for many nonsecurity issues, including the environment, transportation, housing, and public services. By placing Sochi within the domestic political, regional, and geopolitical contexts, this report examines the myriad challenges facing the Sochi Olympics that could affect the Games. It also examines Russia’s policy response to these challenges and its preparations for the Games, as well as the work that still needs to be done.

English | 2017 | ISBN: 1629220698 | EPUB | pages: 224 | 1.2 mb
The midterm elections of 2014 saw the culmination of long-term trends in American politics and laid the groundwork for Republicans’ successes in 2016. To what extent were the results the product of shifting partisan and demographic trends, and to what extent did policy questions drive the results? What can 2014 tell us about midterm elections generally? In this volume, leading scholars look at this election in its broad strokes, in case studies of key races, and in terms of policy questions such as immigration, health care, the environment, and election administration itself. Chapters also address the important issue of voter wait times for democratic outcomes. The authors demonstrate that while the 2014 midterms were in many ways typical, important variation emerges at the level of individual races.
